Punjab Government, in a significant decision aimed at facilitating the citizens of the state by digitalizing the functioning of the Revenue Department, on Wednesday launched a website to further streamline the process to enroll Khangi Taqseem — the family partition.

Launching the website https://eservices.punjab.gov.in, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann described it as a revolutionary decision to facilitate the residents of the state by further streamlining the process to enroll Khangi Taqseem. “Through this website, applications of people will be easily submitted for Khangi Taqseem through a single click. Citizens can apply on this website with details including their name, father or husband name, name of the village, sub-tehsil or tehsil, district, khata and khewat number with simple application,” he said.

The Chief Minister said that the applicant will also have to submit a memorandum of proposed partition and field map depicting portioned parcels of land duly signed by all shareholders. Mann said that after processing by concerned Circle Revenue Officer, these online applications will be sent to Kanungo in-charge and then concerned Patwari. After verifying all the facts of the memorandum with the Revenue Record, Patwari will call the parties to be present personally for the official formalities and to initiate the mutation proceedings, he added.

“After entering the mutation, concerned Patwaris will present it to the Kanungo for verification and finally before the concerned CRO (Assistant Collector Grade-2) for the final orders,” said Mann adding that a brief order will be entered on the portal against each application after due attestation of the mutation.

He said that this citizen-centric initiative will go a long way in simplifying the demarcation process, and the disputes will be settled amicably. “This will also ensure the ease of buying and selling of land besides making it convenient to get compensation for crop damage and to obtain copy of Zamabandi,” added Mann.
